Britain’s most popular dance showman has returned to the music of Tchaikovsky with the third in his interpretations of the Russian composer’s ballet masterworks, Sleeping Beauty.
Bourne takes Perrault’s timeless fairy tale of a girl cursed to sleep for a hundred years as his starting point, conjuring up a gothic fairy tale that will appeal to all ages. Incorporating master storytelling, powerful musicality and stunningly original staging (including an adorably monstrous puppet), Bourne and his supremely talented collaborators once again raise the bar for modern dance stories.
